A flexible coupling 10 is constituted such that a drive-side plate 11 and
an intermediate plate 13 are interconnected by first connection members
14A to 14D having a rubber member in such a manner that they can move in
a direction perpendicular to a direction for interconnecting pin members
15a and 15b for mounting the above first connection members 14A to 14B,
and the intermediate plate 13 and a driven-side plate 12 are
interconnected by second connection members 16A to 16D having the same
constitution as the above first connection members 14A to 14D and
arranged perpendicular to the above first connection members 14A to 14D
in such a manner that they can move in a direction perpendicular to the
above direction. Torque on the drive side can be transmitted to the
driven side efficiently with simple constitution and the flexible
coupling can be easily mounted.
